Deeper and Darker — FAQ

FAQ & Troubleshooting

How do I get to the Otherside? Build a portal from reinforced deepslate (the material the Ancient City is made of) inside or from an Ancient City in the Deep Dark, then activate it and step through.

Where do I find the materials for the armor? Explore the Deep Dark caves and the Otherside. Mine sculk blocks and gloomslate and collect the mod's crafting items, including the Heart of the Deep, then craft the gear at a crafting table.

Why is the Stalker so hard to escape? The Stalker hunts by sound, much like the Warden. Crouch, move slowly, and avoid making noise to slip past it.

What's the difference between Warden and Resonarium armor? Warden armor is the heavier, late-game set with the custom horned helmet; Resonarium is a lighter alternative set for a different look and feel.

Is the Otherside dangerous? Yes - it is a high-risk, high-reward dimension full of hostile sculk creatures. Go in prepared with good armor, food, and light, and you'll be rewarded with unique blocks and loot.

Do the new mobs spawn in the normal world? They live in the sculk areas - the Deep Dark caves and the Otherside - so you'll meet them wherever the sculk is, not out in ordinary biomes.
